AL.com is reporting that former Alabama defensive lineman Wilson Love is being sued by a former fraternity brother of his for allegedly beating him up on a trip they took together in 2012.

quote:Both men are members of the UA chapter of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. According to the lawsuit, they vacationed together in March 2012 at the Hotel Erwin in Los Angeles. McKenna alleges that on or about March 11, 2012, he returned to the hotel from a night of drinking and "was viciously physically attacked by Defendant Wilson Love who jumped on [McKenna] without any provocation, assaulted and beat [McKenna] with his fists."

Connor McKenna, a marketing and advertising student at the university who is filing the suit claims his nose was broken, his teeth chipped and loosened and his face was cut during the alleged beating. Medical services that McKenna needed after the alleged attack cost him more than $14,000.

Love graduated in December and a representative for the University confirmed that he has not been with the team since Alabama's loss to the Oklahoma Sooners in the Sugar Bowl.
